President Rodrigo Duterte on Friday honored the selflessness and bravery of frontline workers tackling the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic in his Araw ng Kagitingan (Day of Valor) message.
Their commitment reflects the heroism of all soldiers who defended the Philippines during World War II, said Duterte.
“As we continue to overcome the Covid-19 pandemic, we take a moment to honor the fortitude displayed by our selfless and dedicated frontliners whose unrelenting commitment in this fight reflects the heroism of the warriors of Bataan that continues to inspire in us a greater sense of patriotism and solidarity during these trying times,” the Chief Executive also said.
The siege of Bataan, he added, is a testament of the “unyielding determination of the Filipino to prevail over all forms of adversity.”
“The valor of our forebears, which was exhibited during the defense of Bataan almost eight decades ago, has left an indelible mark in our history and shaped our indomitable spirit to rise after every fall,” concluded Duterte.
The Araw ng Kagitingan commemorates the heroism and sacrifice of Filipino and American soldiers who stood up against Japanese forces in World War II.
